Pitch report by Sanjay Manjrekar to broadcasters
“No tall stands, so there’s a bit of a breeze factor. Pretty substantial breeze that’s blowing across, it might come into play. This is not a dead-centre pitch on this ground. (Square boundaries) 62m short boundary, 68m on the other side, but straight is 70 and upwards (78m). If you’re going to hit straight, make sure you’ve got a lot of power behind the shot. So there’s an incentive to play cross-batted on this pitch. I find this pitch on the harder side. It might be a little bit two-paced as well. There’s a nice covering of grass. It might skid on a little. I don’t think we’ll see a lot of bounce. Doesn’t look like a turner. First half of the game may be something for the spinners. Win the toss, you want to bowl first on this surface.”
